Walsh was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday retroactive to July 27 with a right intercostal strain.
EDGE Analysis
Walsh was held out of Tuesday's contest after exiting Monday's game with what was labeled a side injury, but he'll now be sidelined for at least 10 days after being diagnosed with an intercostal strain. It's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined, though he'll be eligible to be activated Aug. 6 versus the Dodgers. Phil Gosselin and Matt Thaiss, who was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake, should fill in at first base for the Halos.

Walsh (side) isn't in the lineup Tuesday against the Rockies, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Walsh was pulled from Monday's contest with a side injury and is currently undergoing testing to determine whether a trip to the injured list is necessary. The 27-year-old should be considered day-to-day until more is known on the injury. Phil Gosselin is starting at first base in his place.

Walsh exited after the seventh inning of Monday's 6-2 win over the Rockies with what manager Joe Maddon described as a side injury, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports. He went 2-for-3 with an RBI before departing.
EDGE Analysis
Maddon noted that Walsh's injury isn't anything serious, but he'll be reevaluated Tuesday before a decision is made on his availability for the second game of the series. Phil Gosselin came on to replace Walsh in Monday's game and would likely be the top candidate to start at first base Tuesday if Walsh can't go.

The 27-year-old has embraced the cleanup role well, slashing .284/.345/.564 with 20 home runs, 60 RBI and 43 runs in 325 plate appearances. He is batting .306 over his last 12 games.

Walsh went 2-for-5 with a pair of home runs and five RBI in an 11-8 win over the Yankees on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Walsh's first homer seemed to be a mere murmur of protest, as his fifth-inning solo shot resulted in the Angels still trailing by three runs. However, that long ball helped Walsh represent the tying run when he came to the plate with the bases loaded in the ninth inning, and the first baseman came through with a dramatic game-tying grand slam off Aroldis Chapman. The multi-homer game was the third of the season for Walsh, who has blossomed as one of baseball's top sluggers this season. He is slashing .282/.345/.568 with 20 homers, 58 RBI and two stolen bases across 316 plate appearances in 2021.

Walsh is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Having hit .174 against southpaws this season, the first baseman gets a day off as the Angels face a left-hander, and no ordinary one at that, in Shane McClanahan. Even after going 0-for-4 on Friday, Walsh is still hitting .271 with five homers and 12 RBI in his last 11 games. Phil Gosselin gets the start at first base for the Saturday afternoon contest.
